About this deal

However, recently I tend to think that bluecoats may be French, which would bring more diversity to the Pirate world.

If Lego doesn't want to use real world nations anymore, they could just make a generic "Imperial Power" group, which would just HAPPEN to look exactly like the British/French/Spanish. LoL Will the setting be a major determining factor in what sort of solders or regiments I use or make up?

CUSTOM PRINTED TORSOS AT UNITED BRICKS

Top leaf holders (known more for their use in palm trees) were utilized in a variety of colors for various lamps and other decorative items Hypothetically at these forts, who would likely be working the guns? Red coats, royal artillery or perhaps some branch I've not considered? Would militia or the like factor in at all? Is it possible to provide some reference images, or links there to, by which I can design my custom figures? The attrition of constant fighting,the inability of the Royal Navy to decisively defeat the French Navy,and the withdrawal of the majority of British forces from North America in 1778 ultimately led to the British army's defeat.The surrender of Cornwallis's army at Yorktown in 1781 allowed theWhigopposition to gain a majority in parliament, and British operations were brought to an end. Numerous different shapes, patterns, and designs of cloth sails (in fact, these were some of the first pieces made of cloth to ever appear in sets!) and later cloth flags.

Methodology number one: Blue is British imperial navy (at least historically). I'd then probably assign red to a marine expeditionary unit. THe only think I'm not absoutely certain what how it would fit in would be the last years of the imperial armada, which has a definite spanish influence in armor and costume (then again, as I don't necessarily care for the later pirate stuff, I could avoid this problem by not buying them.) Hmmm, I think (in the event that I should get imperial vessels) that I'd end up treating it one of two ways:

Maybe I can add some clarification, I am a naval historian... There are two thoughts on the American uniforms, but in 1803 was when congress finally set a standard of Blue and Gold. The first thought was that blue was chosen because France wore blue also... but since the United States was involved in a quasi war with France in 1797 when the first actual regulations were written (in fact the whole American Navy was re founded that year to fight French commerce raiding) this is unlikely. The second thought is probably more likely, British officers wore blue coats. Every navy in the world wanted to be as up to date and as powerful as the Royal Navy. Emulation happened around the globe. It is likely that the United States copied the Royal Navy. Lastly, American Marines also wore blue coats, but they were much darker than the ones that Lego figs wear. By the style of dress, I would say that the redcoats would be British and the Bluecoats French during the 7 years war period. That is only if we HAVE to assign a nationality.

Large Pirate Ship (Size of Carribean Clipper) A big ship which is loading with more cannons than it looks like it should have, ragtag decor... you know the deal

And maybe, just maybe, there is a much deeper link between ones true alignment and the factions. So that all people ultimately belongs to the bluecoat or redcoat camp even if they have never even touched a piece of LEGO? Okay, I should be able to answer at least a few of your questions right now. After doing some research, I'll try to answer the others.
